    This set up should work using the universal TD on the TM for the Dual beam, correct? So I am down to needing a Y cable and the correct pigtail for the universal transducer, plus a way to mount the tipped TD up front. Both sides of spare HDSI 180 work so will need to pull one pin or cut one wire.

    BTW, great pictures guys!! Rickie... wondering why you are running chart speed that much higher than boat speed, seems like this would give you a stretched out picture rather than what you are showing. What about your chart speed vs. boat speed Kosmo?

    Correct...I was running higher Chart speed to stretch the DI image some to be able to see the separation in the brush limbs ...

    Yes the US2 can be used as the Dual Beam in this Setup ...
    -----
    The adapter cable for using the US2 with the HB is the MKR-US2-8 ...
    Minn Kota Motors

    I would suggest removing a pin from the AS SIDB Y cable instead of removing a pin in the xducer cable ...(much cheaper) ...

    The main connector of the AS SIDB Y cable has the exact same pin configuration as the SI xducer ...

    Remove pin #3 in the main connector of the AS SIDB Y cable to disable the left SI channel of the Setup ...
